Nani23 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Hi, I went to Calgary for H1B stamping in Feb 2014 - H1B Visa approved till Sep 2014. And then I got extended for another 3 years based on my I-140. Now I am planning to go for stamping in Mexico. I am trying to schedule a visa appointment in mexico (Matamoros). While filling, I was asked the following questions and i am little confused. Is the applicant renewing a Visa? I think the answer is YES as i am renewing my H1B visa (expired). But when i selected YES, its asking me to select VISA ISSUING POST NAME from a dropdown which doesn't have calgary as an option. what should i do? Is the applicant traveling from another country to apply for a visa in Mexico? I am in USA right now. Should this be YES or NO? Thanks in Advance. Link to comment
JusJazz Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Hi Nani, I filled in the form two days back ad here are the options i choose.. Is the applicant renewing a Visa? Mine was the same case where my previous stamping was done in Hyd. So chose the 'Other' option i guess Is the applicant traveling from another country to apply for a visa in Mexico? I chose YES And btw when are you planning to book your dates ? Regards, Jay Link to comment
Nani23 Posted January 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 HI Jay, Thank you so much for clarifying me. I am thinking of Feb 26th and how about you? And did you applied for Mexican Visitor Visa? I am planning to apply for it next week. I am not sure if its needed or not but everyone says its better to have it. Link to comment
JusJazz Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 I booked my dates for Feb 04th and 05th. And i do have the Mexican Visitor Visa. And not sure if its needed, but it was pretty simple to get one and so i got it. Since you have time, i would suggest that you get it to be on the safer side. Link to comment
